So, looked at lots of House and Garden houses at Martinborough and Greytown today. Tomorrow I get time out for a "run" in the RS60 on my own out towards the coast (well until the seal runs out)

Took a couple of short vids from the SITT at Highlands, Leongs fighter jet sounding M5 and Roberts 993 RS, both sounded great up pit straight with the noise echoing of the concrete barrier, hope the links work, still finding my way with loading up on RL!

That works. I can imagine a few cars kiss that wall as the entry is tight at speed.

Ah good, didn't think they were there as I couldn't see them ! and yes its accounted for a few unfortunate souls, tricky corner as once committed there's no getting out of it, certainly gets the adrenalin going when at race speed and following others through............

Happy to bonnet polish all those virtual cars as long as i get to drive them round the block afterwards.

Thanks for the contact number of the broker. I really need to get that sorted sharpish

Warwick - AirNZ isn't that bad mate - you get to hang out with Dave Mac and H and talk Pcars all day..........
AirNZ has a dart board. Wahoo. True about the pcar massive at AirNZ. Helen's a hard case and i have spies all around the company spotting new pcars in the car park for me

November 2013 I think, would of been the last round of the Endurance series, pretty sure it got turned around on entry to the corner by a Ferrari, scary ride but driver was ok which was good, car not so!

That's ok then - I thought that was its last big off. Would have been a shame to repeat the trick last week!!
